Old Bridge, Huntingdon, Medieval stone bridge in Huntingdon, England
The Old Bridge spans the River Great Ouse with six arches constructed of stone, connecting the towns of Huntingdon and Godmanchester.
Built around 1332, this bridge replaced an earlier wooden structure from the 10th century constructed under Edward the Elder's direction.
The bridge status as both a Grade I listed building and Scheduled Ancient Monument reflects its importance in English architectural heritage.
Modern traffic management directs heavy vehicles to the A14 viaduct while the original bridge remains open for cars and light vehicles.
The bridge features distinctive triangular parapets on its north side and semi-hexagonal designs on the south, demonstrating medieval engineering techniques.
